Ubiquitous Embedded Systems Revolution: Applications and Emerging Trends
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper describes the various technological revolutions and pinpoints the embedded systems revolution as the most recent and quietest of all. Being a revolution within another, it is seen as embedded into digital revolution. Embedded systems came into limelight with the birth of microcontrollers and have invaded and embedded themselves into all fields of our lives and this ubiquity is increasing in our daily lives. Despite this, the level of awareness of embedded system is low, hence this paper is written. During the survey of embedded systems evolution the point that they perform dedicated functions was brought to the fore. Most embedded systems are encapsulated within the main working frame of the device being controlled. The widespread and diverse natures of the system as seen in the numerous applications confirm the revolution of this ubiquitous system.

متن کاملUbiquitous Verification of Ubiquitous Systems
Ubiquitous embedded computing systems expected to reliably perform one or more relevant tasks need design and verification methods currently not available. New envisioned applications and trends in system design increase this need. Several of these trends, e.g. function integration, concurrency, energy awareness, networking and their consequences for verification are considered in this article....

متن کاملComparison of Different Targets Used in Augmented Reality Applications in Ubiquitous GIS
Drilling requires accurate information about locations of underground infrastructures or it can cause serious damages. Augmented Reality (AR) as a technology in Ubiquitous GIS (UBIGIS) can be used to visualize underground infrastructures on smartphones. Since smartphone’s sensors do not provide such accuracy, another approaches should be applied. Vision based computer vision systems are well kn...
